how did you get to the SSR? i came by way of:
2001 Ford F150 Supercrew (shown with my 02 super air)
2001 M3 convertible (i miss this sucker)
2004 Mini Cooper S (selling her this week)
2005 Smoking Asphault SSR (big grin)
Oh gosh... where do I start? Been driving a 1967 Chev Pick-up and a 1996 Chev Tahoe, switching back and forth as driving requirement/conditions change for 9 years. I was saving for a new Tahoe. My 1996 will be 9 years old this spring. When I started looking around, I came to the conclusion that buying a new Tahoe wouldn't give me much more than I already have. Then I started looking at the SSR. The uniqueness attracted me and the 05 drive-train locked me in. I have always been a Chevy guy, but have been somewhat disappointed in their line-up in recent years. They have great trucks and I have total respect for the Corvette. But if you want a car or something fun, Chevy really doesn’t have anything to offer. The SSR fit that mold. Although expensive... but not much more than a new-loaded Tahoe. So, I am keeping the Tahoe for times when I have more than 1 passenger, week-end trips with the family, and bad weather (Snow -

). I have semi-retired the 67 Pick-up... moving it to my Car Collectors insurance policy, and I drive the SSR daily (weather permitting).
That is how I got here... previous rides:
87 K10 Blazer (preceded the 96 Tahoe)
71 Corvette Conv (preceded the 03 Corvette)
Current rides:
57 Chevy Modified (in progress)
66 Impala SS Conv 4-Speed Air
67 Chev Pick-up (short Bed)
96 Tahoe
02 PT Cruiser (Wife's Car)
03 Corvette Conv - 50th Annv Edition
05 SSR Ricochet Silver, 6-Speed
05 SSR Ricochet Silver - 6 Speed
